Eyewitness account

The eyewitness, who wishes to remain anonymous, was at dinner with her cousins when they noticed a “commotion”. She said:

Security and lots of other people were rushing out of the door. I saw a young man who had his trousers down and I could see he had been stabbed in the right leg.

I looked down and another man was slumped on the floor. I couldn’t see what happened but he was clutching his chest. I think he had been stabbed in the upper body somewhere.

Police didn’t arrive at the scene for around 10 minutes.

Security were not letting anyone in or out of the restaurant until police arrived. We didn’t leave until 12.30am.
